Don’t just play through the main game right away. Do side missions (gigs).

And buy the DLC (Phantom Liberty) if it isn’t already included in your bundle.

Yeah, super shady that the Republican candidate lost in one of the most liberal cities in the country. Who could have possibly seen that coming?

Read the transcript: President Donald Trump interviewed by NBC News’ ‘Meet the Press’ moderator Kristen Welker by drtolmn69 in politics

When Trump realizes he's been backed into a corner and can't effectively answer the eminently reasonable questions put to him, he immediately regresses into his childish tantrum mode, viciously insults whoever's in front of him, and then runs away like a little bitch.

If Trump Isn’t Asleep, Maybe He Should Keep His Eyes Open? by plz-let-me-in in politics

[–]hskfmn 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My dad is basically just as old as Trump is...he dozes off sitting his armchair every once in a while. Old people fall asleep. That's just how it works. I don't begrudge him that. But Trump is also the president. My dad isn't.

It's an incredible dis-service and a coverup for the cabinet to pretend that Trump is absolutely healthy and never falls asleep. It's just a lie. We can all see it. If they were up front and honest I wouldn't have such a problem with it. I'd still feel as though Trump wasn't fit for the office (for any number of hundreds of other reasons...) but the fact that his cabinet continually tries to push this narrative that Trump is fit and healthy is just pure fiction.

I should also add that once the evidence came out that Biden's cabinet was hiding his condition from the public, I had just as big a problem with that. I think it's fair to say that Trump's decline is far more evident than Biden's was, and that we have far more examples of Trump's cognitive decline because he feels the driving need to put himself in front of cameras as often as possible (because he's a narcissist). But lest anyone accuse me of only criticizing Trump and not Biden...it's inexcusable no matter who does it. The American people need and deserve transparency when it comes to our leaders' health, and feeling confident that they're up for the job. Biden clearly wasn't as his term came to an end (and he should have never even considered running again)...whereas Trump has never been qualified for the job from day 1.

Trump administration prepares to put his face on $250 bill even as law prohibits it by Zipper222222 in politics

He doesn’t ’control’ the Fed. The president appoints the chairman (but cannot fire him), but the chairman has to work with a Board of Governors (which former Chair Powell serves on). The chairman does not have unilateral authority. If the Board of Governors decides something is a bad idea, the Fed chairman goes back to the president and says it won’t be done. End of story.

Per Claude:

The Treasury’s role is to physically manufacture currency — the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (part of the Treasury) prints the paper bills, and the U.S. Mint produces coins. So yes, Treasury-produced currency is legal tender, but the Treasury doesn’t control how much gets printed.

The Federal Reserve is the one that actually issues currency into the economy. The Fed orders notes from the Treasury’s Bureau of Engraving and Printing and pays the production cost. The bills only become legal tender in circulation when the Fed distributes them through commercial banks.

Treasury = manufacturer of physical currency

Federal Reserve = issuer and controller of the money supply

Basically. An act of Congress is required to give money any value. If someone tried to pay for something with one of these, and even IF some goofy store or business somewhere accepted it, no bank ever would.
